Eliphy is Theodore’s long time pen pal! They were always sending support letters to each other and both of them dreamed that one day they will meet in real life.
Once Theodore returned from his journey he received a letter from Eliphy with surprising news! She is going to visit him on his birthday and bring him a very special gift!
